About The Lugger Inn

The Lugger Inn stands directly on the quay in Polruan, with the River Fowey running past its front door. It's an adults-only hotel, making it a quieter base for a Cornish break away from family crowds, and its position on the water means coastal walks and river views are never far away.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks provided, and the inn keeps a 24 hour reception for guests coming and going at odd hours. Downstairs there's a bar and restaurant serving breakfast and meals on site, with further pubs, restaurants and eateries nearby for anyone wanting to explore Polruan's other options.

The setting suits an active stay as much as a relaxed one: fishing and watersports are on hand along the river, a golf course lies nearby, and there's local entertainment for evenings after a day on the coastal paths. It's a straightforward, well-placed quayside inn for exploring this stretch of Cornwall.
